Back in Doha.

Landed in Doha today morning at 7 am,My friends Shyjan, Wilson and Harsha we there airport to receive me in their 4x4, was fun to meet the gang again. I kept bags at office and headed to the office... Its been little over 36 hours that I haven't slept, Am really sleepy..thanks to non stop traveling from Bombay to Poona and back via Saki Naka Andheri to Borivali and back to Airport and Doha . I nearly dozed off at work today afternoon.. splashed my face with water 3-4 times to keep my droopy eyes awake.

 

 

I spoke to a Real Estate Speculator Friend of mine who has booked some 8 properties in North India. His Modus Operandi book the flats during foundation... I.e pay 2-3 lakhs for a property worth 20 lakhs and keep offloading it after 6 months back to the builder or the real estate broker.  Doing this for 3-4 flats enabled him to buy a full flat.

His source of funds Personal Loans, Stock Market funds & His Father who does the running around.

Outta da Markets

I've offloaded all my stocks. Officially out of Sensex and Nifty.
I think Indian markets are in a overbought zone and with the Budget and
elections coming up a big correction is due.

The day I sold my friend Roshan said Marc Faber predicts the same, Whether Me
and Marc is right only time will tell. I digged what Marc said and I agree with
Mr. Doom.

Another thing is I've learnt a very good investment funda from Chetan Gandhi
that "When in Doubt, Get Out"

This is what Marc said.

Marc Faber, publisher of the Gloom, Boom & Doom Report, predicts global assets
are poised for a "severe correction" and says it's time to sell.

"In the next few months, we could get a severe correction in all asset markets,"
Faber said in an interview with Bloomberg Television in New York.

"In a selling panic you should buy, but in the buying mania that we have now the
wisest course of action is to liquidate."

Faber, founder and managing director of Hong Kong-based Marc Faber Ltd,
correctly predicted the US stock market crash in 1987.

He also advised investors to buy gold in 2001, which has since more than
doubled. His company manages about $300 million in assets

Diet FAQ :-)

 

Q: Should I cut down on meat and eat more fruits and vegetables?
A: You must grasp logistical efficiencies. What does a lamb eat? Leaves and corn. And what are these? Vegetables.
So a kabab is nothing more than an efficient mechanism of delivering vegetables to your system.

Need grain?
Eat chicken.


Q: Should I reduce my alcohol intake?
A: No, not at all. Wine is made from fruit. Brandy is distilled wine, that means they take the water out of the fruity bit so you get even more of the goodness that way. Beer is also made out of grain.

Its only the misconception, that narrow minded people have. So, Bottoms up!

Q: Aren't fried foods bad for you?
A: YOU'RE NOT LISTENING!!! Foods are fried these days in vegetable oil.How could getting more vegetables be bad for you?


Q: Is chocolate bad for me?
A: Are you crazy? HELLO ...... Cocoa beans ... another vegetable ! It's the best feel-good food around!


Q: Is swimming good for your figure?
A: If swimming is good for your figure, explain whales to me.


Q: Is getting in shape important for my lifestyle?
A: Hey! 'Round' is a shape!


Well, I hope this has cleared up any misconceptions you may have had About food and diets..........

Jai Tirupati Balaji - An Update

Me and Bro visited Tirupati-Tirumala , the journey was very fulfilling and peaceful. Any visit to a spiritual place gives you a wonderful feeling and a Tirupati surely is the ultimate inner satisfaction for any devotee.
We flew to Chennai then took a 5 hour bus to Tirumala, Stayed at the TTD Guest house.. decent clean rooms at 100 bucks each. Since we dint have the tokens for the darshan we went for the public darshan, We were in the line from 2300 hrs to 1000 am the next day, we slept in the lines bit worried of the pickpockets and the chilling temperature but it was worth the effort. TTD made good arrangement for water and breaker for the pilgrims. Hats off to them.

When one has a few seconds of darshan of Sri Balaji the atmosphere is chaotic and full of energy, there are thousands pushing from behind and you have your one on one darshan with God, one is too stunned at times to say, speak or pray anything but our hearts speak out and every words we say we feel , thanks and mission accomplished. Thank you staying wid me and supporting me all the while.
Thank you Balaji, Sri Venketesa Namah.

Off Blogging for a few days.

I would be going on a pilgrimage for few days.

Mumbai Aamchich - Wonder if it will be released ?

I wonder if this Anti- North Indian marathi movie will be relaeased after the BMC elections.

“They have ruined the quality of life in Mumbai. They are dominating us Marathi people, who are the original inhabitants of this city, and are taking away our opportunities. I couldn’t remain a mute spectator, which is why I decided to produce this movie,” says Bansode, who wrote, produced, directed and acted in the movie.

What Bansode is doing is wrong, but at times I wonder what would be the reaction of locals in Kerala, TN, Karnataka or West Bengal when they lose out to people from other states of India in jobs and other opportunity.

Will we have local version of this movie in every state of India by every angry local??

India needs to create to alteast 5-10 more Bombay's to solve this mega migration from UP, Bihar and other poorer parts of our country,

Bombay, Apun aarahela hai ...

Moi will be reaching home on 18th Dec.

Feel freel to drop me a mail, scrap me on Orkut or buzz me if you know my number,

Looking forward to meeting my loved ones and usual suspects.

cheers

India's Gold Hunt.

Paes-Sania beat Satoshi Iwabuchi and Akiko Morigami of Japan 7-5, 5-7, 6-2 to win the Mixed doubles GOLD!!
Also Leander & Bhupathi survived 7 match points in the Doubles against Thailand to win 5–7, 7–6, 6–3
But apna Sania lost her final against China's Zheng 4-6, 6-1, 1-6.

To watch a match in the stadium in an electifying atmosphere in itself but to hear the National Anthem and the Bhangra music in a foreign country gives you the goose bumps and bloats oneself with pride.

Some pics of the games.. Click to enlarge it.

Sania & Shika Mania @ Doha 2006.
